FoxNews.com ^ | Published June 29, 2014 | FoxNews.com

He's been called an education visionary, a confidante of the future president and a terrorist, but he's never had to answer questions like these.

William Ayers, who went from leading the Weather Underground in the 1960s and early 1970s to becoming a celebrated academic at University of Illinois, sat down for a no-holds barred interview with Fox News Channel's Megyn Kelly, which will air Monday night.

So a guy that blows up buildings and kill people is considered a “celebrated academic” in leftist circles huh?
Those people make me sick.

Ayers was grifter obamas IL education dept connection.
Rezko was the IL housing dept connection.
Jarrett ran the whole grift.
Rev Jackson was a corporate shakedown master.
Obama, Jarrett et al brought the grift to a new level, shaking down state government on the guise of helping the poor.
Getting their claws into federal government was a dream come true to these d-bags...

What I’ve seen of Megan Kelly tells me she doesn’t have any well defined ideology.

Once a broadcaster gets to a point where they can go either way on pretty much all controversial issues, I find no value in watching or listening to them.

The Ayers-Obama relationship is clear proof that Obama is one big liar: During Obama's first campaign, Obama said that Ayers was only that guy who lived in the neighborhood. What a liar.

If Obama lied so much about Ayers, then how can we believe him when he promises with all his heart that he will enforce immigration reform if only the Republican House would pass such reform laws? What a liar.

That doesn’t bother me - neither side is right all the time. It’s the journalist’s job to be fair in exposing the truth. I like to hear reasoned debate from all sides.

That being said - I’m way conservative personally - I hate the bastard incompetents and terrorist loving $hits in the WH and will believe to the death that abortion is flat out murder. And I love Sarah Palin.

Correct.

I get the feeling that he’s never experienced any significant consequences for his actions.

Why is he doing this interview now? Is he trying to start a controversy to distract us from Zero’s issues? Something’s up.

Pure arrogance.

He’s hawking his book. Great.

And Meghan’s questioning doesn’t seem to have a purpose.

I agree with you, neither side is right all the time.

And it’s not necessarily Megyn Kelly I don’t like. In many ways she’s very appealing. In all likelihood I’m misinterpreting her intentions as an interviewer.

What I don’t like is whatever force behind the scenes—could be simply the traditions of journalism—that produces what appears to be a false balance serving only to validate corruption.

I think I know what you mean and it’s something that bothers me a lot. My example is - if they were interviewing God, would they feel compelled to give Satan equal time?

Frequently there is far too much time allocated to the other side, no matter how despicable.

according to the wisdom of my father,.....believe nothing you read or hear and only 1/2 of what you see....good advise..Some universities have done experiments on what you see. A person will run into the class, grab the teachers purse off the desk. Then they interview the students...its an eye opener on what you actually see...

I found a number of Ayers comments were false and Kelly challenged him on many of them.

However, I found it interesting that Ayers claimed there were 20,000 bombings during the period and that Weather Underground was responsible for approx. 2,000. Kelly did not challenge him on this. I don’t remember hearing of 20,000 bombings in US during any period. Anyone have any tots on this?

I didn’t get a chance to see Kelly and Ayers.

Watching a program about Grace Lee Boggs.

Fascinating and the thought process these people go through to arrive at their mission of Dialectical Thinking, which they seem to prize over simple problem solving.

She likes Hagel’s ideas and Marx.

fk’d up thinking process.

The Black Panthers did a few bombings. I imagine a few other groups did bombings as well...

However, 20,000 is a difficult number to believe is accurate.
